We are back from PAX and what a week it was. PAX is definitely the best computer game trade show of its kind.
While there, Stardock, Gas Powered Games, and Ironclad showed off our latest and greatest and the teams got to know each other. We had a great time!
The Gamer's Bill of Rights, Demigod, Sins of a Solar Empire: Entrenchment, and The Political Machine got a lot of attention.
Here are some scenes from the show...
Darth Vader approves of the Gamer's Bill of Rights...
Chris Taylor signs autographs
Blair and Craig (from Ironclad) demo Sins
Crowds watch Sins and Demigod get demoed
Chris Taylor (left) demos Demigod with Brad (Frogboy/Draginol) on the right with Brian Clair (Yarlen) standing right behind.
The Gamer's Bill of rights is a big hit at the show.
The Demigod station is very popular
Mike Mar (lead designer) demoes Demigod
The advent (Josie) at Pax.
The empire inspects Galactic Civilizations, recognizes Drengin threat.
Chris gets interviewed
Brad (Frogboy/Draginol) lives in fear of Karmagirl (for good reason)
Packing up to go
Stardock/Ironclad/GPG teams being silly and having fun.
Nice pictures, thanks for posting I was right on Blair and Craig, ha!
Sounds like it was a lot of fun, wish I could've gone. There's always next year! You guys will probably be showing off the not-MoM, Ironclad will be doing Sins 2 or something (hey, we can dream ).. it'd be grand
Great pics. Too bad no video is forthcoming. Oh well.
PAX was a lot of fun. And I was surpriused, and pleased to see that my favorite gamer company was there! Stardock, of course. So I HAD to wander over and give a thumbs up to both Sins and Galactic Civ.
I'm sure the people at PAX remember me. I was the rather tall guy dressed head to toe in black. I was generally followed around by guys in white armor. I'll have to do it again next year, but, alas, they'll be expecting me.
Fool them all by bringing Yoda. Real challenge? Be just as short
Haha I remember Josie and her freaky deaky eyes!
What do I ge out of this? Karmagirl *is* a fist.
My eyes water like mad when I look at Josie's in those pics...
Good times...
I have more incriminating pictures from after show hours, but I'll let MilkSama, KarmaGirl, and Yarlen decide if they want to post those.
Inconceivable! I can't speak for MilkSama or KarmaGirl, but I'm sure Yarlen won't mind
And if he does, he'll just cry a bit and it will all be okay (he's going to hurt me now isn't he..)
Is it me or does that trooper next to vader have a feather coming out of his armor.... I'll have to go back and check the the star wars movies.
Man that looked like a lot of fun . Just wish those events were closer to me
You were Vader? That costume was awesome! I was the one taking pictures of you at the booth. Are you really that tall. I felt like a midget. LOL
We plan to go again next year, so we'll see you there again!
Wow Frogboy looks EVIL in that picture where is is being "in fear" (look at his eyes!)
And finally we get to see Yarlen (in the glasses standing under "...to bring..."?)
I'll afta go some year. Although if I dressed up I have no idea what I'd go as (Thrawn isn't the best idea, the blue paint would be annoying and how would I get the glowing red eyes? Plus I don't really look like Thrawn )
agggghhhhhhh why cant you be in the UKwe get nothing over here pay us a visit please.
I know I know!

Thank you. A lot of blood, sweat, and tears went into ithat outfit. And everytime I see pictures of it, I keep seeing things that need to be updated.
Yes. I am that tall. (This is the most common question I'm asked!) I'm 6'6" in Bare feet, and with the costume on I top out at about 6'10". Between the boots, and the helmet, they add a touch of height.
Of course, mthe suit is VERY hot to wear, and heavy. Takes a lot out of me to wear it, and I'm not as young as I want to be. :/
Fun pics! Rock on Darth! You looked excellent (and gigantic).
Actually we stole Darth Vader and the storm troopers from Wizards of the Coast for a while after he mentioned how much he loved GalCiv2 and Sins Whoever they got to play Darth Vader was truly a well-chosen character though; he loomed over even me (I'm 6'4").
As far as any other pictures... I'm sure there are many instances where I do not even remember what was going on at the time. (The bean bag chair surfing sure was fun though! )
Wow, I had no idea you made that! Very well done!
Thank you. I love wearing it.
These are just crying out to be photoshopped. I see Frogboy with claws and fangs, and Karmagirl with a cross in her hand. Evidently, from the empty plates in the background, they needed a snack before doing battle.
"I shall send you back to the nether regions, Dark Lord; but first, how about some nachos?"
ITS A TRAP!!!
Wow nice Shalamar.
That 's an awesome outfit.
Yeah first thing that went into my head was to have lasers shooting out of his eyes..
Thats the first picture of Yarlen I've ever seen from above the waist.
